Get the offsets a subordinate (type "S") prediction station applies to its reference station's predictions. kind "tide": returns refStationId, time offsets for high/low tide (minutes), height offsets for high/low tide, and whether the height adjustment is a ratio (multiplied) or fixed value — this is how NOAA derives subordinate-station tide times from the reference harmonic station. kind "current": returns refStationId/bin, mean flood/ebb directions, and time adjustments (minutes) for max flood, slack-before-ebb, max ebb, slack-before-flood plus amplitude ratios. Note: current prediction offsets are indexed per bin — pass the station_bin_suffix ID form (e.g. "ACT0091_1") if the plain ID returns nothing. Reference (R) stations return empty/null offsets — they don't need any.
